Abstract
A rain or water proof connecting assembly for securing electrical metal tubing to a junction box and the like having a connecting body with a bore defining opposed open ends and an electrical metal tubing or conduit adapted to be received in at least one open end. The open end receiving the metal tubing includes an internal portion sized to snugly receive the end of the metal tubing or conduit and a diverging or tapered internal surface portion immediately adjacent the open end. Fitted onto the securing end of the metal tubing is a sealing gland having a complementary tapered outer surface and a split compression ring arranged so that when assembled, the sealing gland provides a fluid tight seal and the split ring effects a mechanically tight and electrically grounded connection between the connecting body and the metal conduit.
